Ureteral urothelial carcinoma with squamous cell carcinoma and sarcomatoid carcinoma differentiation: a case report.
Review in BMC surgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundUpper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) with multiple pathological types is extremely rare in the clinic, but the recurrence rate and mortality these patients are high. At present, there is no standard treatment for such cases. CASE PRESENTATION: We reported a case of ureteral urothelial carcinoma with squamous cell carcinoma and sarcomatoid carcinoma differentiation and rapid ileal metastasis and reviewed the literature related to different pathological types of upper urinary tract tumours to explore the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis characteristics of the disease, enhance our understanding of its clinical manifestations and history of evolution and provide guidance for avoiding missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis.
conclusionThere is no standard treatment for urinary malignant tumours with multiple pathological types; radical surgery is considered a suitable choice. Chemotherapy, targeted drug therapy and immunotherapy may be beneficial to the survival of patients. In short, these patients have a high risk of recurrence and metastasis and a poor prognosis.
